This isn’t a love story, but a story about love. I have answered several questions throughout the years; the one that I am asked often is; if it was all worth it? I always answer it the same way, if it is all you’ve ever known then you don’t know what to expect. In all honesty, in order to understand my happiness than you need to know my sadness.

So here begins my story…my name is Ysabelle Telle.

The world is surrounded by countless distinctions. You can think of any word and there is an opposite meaning; happiness and sadness, pleasure and pain, joy and misery, companionship and loneliness, life and death, and love and hate. The list could go on and on. I have experienced every one of these emotions tenfold.
